Today let’s learn to cook youtiao! Youtiao (said yo-tee-ow) are also called Chinese doughnuts or fried breadsticks. The ingredients are fairly simple—flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, salt, and water—but the process is quite time consuming. It can take up to 9 hours. But regardless, the results are priceless.

【旅行天下】CiCi Li 的俄罗斯莫斯科之旅 Moscow in Russia

And so if St-Petersburg permeates Russian grandeur, Moscow reminds me of Russia’s saddest historical period—that of the Soviet Union. Nevertheless, the Muscovites, making an abstraction of that history, live their own dynamic lives. And so the capital is a lively city, full of attractions and contradictions. And our program is packed!! It will be perfect to finish this trip traveling through the two biggest cities in Russia.

CiCi you are a superstar in my heart. I want to see you on packing my toothpaste, I want to see your photo on my anti-dandruff shampoo, the packaging of my cereal every morning, in all the magazine covers, all television commercials, movies, want to see you win the Oscar. I want to see CiCi President of China or the United States. : )
